Anyone else got a tattoo of something from Battletech? Or thinking about getting one?

Oh my lord, that's sick. If I were to get one it'd have to be the Uziel.

I love it. I've got to ask, what did the tattoo guy say about it? anything?

Greetings all,

Nice tattoo, but way to permanent.

Just for those that really don't want that "life long" attraction of the inked tattoo, there is a rather new item of the Temporary tattoo.

These can be created by hand crafting or with a printer, so anything that be designed, printed, can be made into a tattoo.
(copyright's not withstanding)
Lasting on your skin about the same length of time as those Kids tattoos that used to be found in box's of cereal. If you need it for a week-end only, here's your product. Even just doing a Google search for temp Tattoo's results in some amazing art work for waterproof and temp designs.

Some examples: (I don't endorse any of these, as some use regular jell pen ink. And others aren't FDA approved.)

On a side note for the temp tattoo's:
Flexible circuit pioneer John Rogers and his team are at it again. This time he's developing a wearable, ultra-thin circuit that attaches to your skin just like a temporary tattoo. The Epidermal Electronic System (EES) consists of circuits which could contain electrodes capable of measuring brain, heart and muscle activity in the same way an EEG does now, transmitting this data wirelessly to your doctor. Because it's flexible and bonds to the skin, it can be worn for extended periods.
~ I like this item for it's non-intrusive application. Not having a ton of wires and contacts attached to the body. And think how fast this could be adapted for EMT's arriving on the scene.

Someone has an unhealthy obsession with Battletech.

Good Lord and I thought I was a freak!

He thought it looked cool, but he generally doesn't give too many ***** about stuff in life (which is cool imo). He's really good and talented as well. He did a great effort in drawing up the blueprint lines.

He called the missile racks speakers and we joked that he should draw music/notes icons blasting out of them xD

I love it! Yes, that might be unhealty.. But if i had to get a Battletech tattoo, i would like a Wolf head.

Actually, i may or may not get one in the future.. I am thinking however about a generic wolf head to make it tied to Clan Wolf but still not tied to BT. I wonder how many could appreciate or even recognize the beauty of a Timberwolf on my arm

There was a guy at the NGNG convention after release with an epic full color tattoo of an Atlas.

Thomas' tattoo is quite striking, but more importantly, he's Ragnar Lothbrok.
